Political Site of the Day

Some noteworthy accolades of late: Tuesday SebiMeyer.com was the pick of the day at aboutpolitics.com, a Web site that picks one political Web site each day. The site claims to be “in the eighth year of reviewing the best political sites on the Internet!” Thanks!

In other news: I finally figured out why comments on this site had been disabled for the last several days and fixed the problem. Details inside.

It seems so many spam comments were hitting my site on one particular post that it crashed the comments queue for all others. I disabled commenting on that post and purged the queue, which seems to have fixed the problem.

The downside of this was that all comments made over the last week or so were deleted in the process. The only alternative was to sift through the 35,482 “comments” that had been posted, 99.99 percent of which were spam, and approve worthwhile comments by hand.

I waste a lot of time on the Web each day, but that would have taken too long, even for my taste.

At least comments seem to be working again now.
